    He is, but really you need to be better then that. You'd like to think someone from the saints camp will have a word. Imagine one of our players acting like that, nonsense level stuff

    I can't comprehend how Northampton are down the bottom of the premiership

    Would be nice if he backed it up in the league and got his team higher than 8th out of 10 teams.

    A date with Doris, Josh & Conan should soften his cough. Leo said they'd be watching this having played on Friday. A certain Mr. Barrett will not be impressed with **** like that.

    I think you're all making a bit too much over Pollock. Rugby has a long history of wind up merchants and chippy shites starting needless scraps. A large part of POM's career was based on that and James Lowe has a fair bit of snark to his game. We love them for that behavior.

    As for Barrett not looking too kindly on that. He plays all his international rugby with Rieko Ioane, the biggest melt in rugby. He doesn't seem to mind.

    What happened at 53 minutes with the 3 cards?

    He spent like 15 minutes on the ground after getting hit by an out half, I wouldn't get carried away with how he's backing it up.

    And all his Super Rugby with Dane Coles and TJ Perenara. Both of whom were constantly sledging.

    Meafou flopped over there and prevented a contest. Should've been penalty Toulon

    A Ramos miss. That's a collector's item

    That's an incredible kick from Garbisi

    You know you’re in with a chance when Ramos is missing kicks like that!

    That's a yellow for Toulouse

    Carley and Dickson, harbingers of the rugby apocalypse.

    Judging the first 15 minutes I would be quietly confident Toulouse will win as long as they keep their head screwed on, but Toulon look to have the talent to upset the apple cart is Toulouse aren’t focused.

    Jaminet smacked that penalty from 60m away.

    Jaminet smacked a second penalty from about 55m away

    Toulouse are properly struggling in these conditions. Their forwards can't keep holding of the ball.

    Ever since Toulon took the lead Toulouse have really struggled to get in the game, I would be pretty worried for Toulouse if Toulon score next.

    that's a shocker of a call by Carley. Clear penalty to Toulon there.

    Entertaining stuff so far, wet conditions admittedly but it feels like Toulon are kick to kick it away when on the attack

    And even if it wasn't, it should have been reversed for the push.

    But Carley's gonna Carley.

    Momentum totally swung towards Toulouse. Toulon making a lot of errors.

    Toulon have shat the bed. Still only 6 in it but they look mentally beaten.

    Yeah they look lost. Toulouse well on top now and their lineout is falling apart now.

    Sides matched physically but Toulon just don't have the guile out wide.

    Some really basic mistakes every few minutes. In the context of this game, Toulouse are/were there for the taking if Toulon could get the "easier" stuff down.
